Have you ever seen a Japanese name with a long vowel being represented by doubling the vowel?
I’ve seen names like Ōshima with the long O sound represented by spelling it Ooshima, as one example of this. I’m kind of in a little bit of an argument online about it, because someone saw it spelled Ooshima and they said they spelled it wrong, and I’m trying to tell them it’s not, it’s just representing the long O.
